At the NSL sign I put my foot down, the car kicked down into 3rd and gained speed at a glacial pace, as the monolith was blocking the exhaust and causing huge back pressure. Then with an almighty clunk and rattle it spat the contents of one of the cats out the exhaust, showering the Merc with smoke and metallic particles, so thick you couldn't actually see his car through it. At which point the S8 shot off like a rat with a firework up its arse...
